Bacardí’s extensive family of flavored rums recently introduced an ambrosial addition to the lineup. Along with Limón, Big Apple, Coconut, Torched Cherry, Arctic Grape, and many other fragrant liquors, there is now a passionate blend of all the delectable fruit-infused taste sensations you crave. Mango Fusion has arrived just in time for the season, and The Bacardí Fusion Lounge is throwing a tasting party in Philadelphia on June 6 from 9 p.m. till 1 a.m. at The Skybox Event Center, 2424 E. York St., Philadelphia.

This landmark event will be hosted by Philly’s No. 1 DJ, Power 99-FM’s Cosmic Kev. Cosmic Kev has a reputation for being the first to play exclusive tracks from the hottest artists. Also on hand will be the newest displays from Sneaker Pimps, an ink gallery by Mister Cartoon, Hoops, and more. The music will be covered by famed music icon DJ Just Blaze.

The Skybox Event Center was originally the home of the H.W. Butterworth and Sons Company. During World War II, the company manufactured textile machinery, and also built anti-aircraft machine gun parts. The sprawling space now houses two unique venues: The Skybox and the Joia Room. According to the center’s website, “The Skybox Event Center still retains many of its original 19th century details, including cast-iron columns, 32-foot ceilings, hardwood and polished floors and exposed brick corridors. Lofe style windows provide plenty of natural light and views of downtown Philadelphia and the Fishtown neighborhood.”

Kick off your summer season right—head on out to the Bacardí Mango Fusion launch party at The Skybox Event Center in Philadelphia on Friday, June 6 at 9 p.m. For more information on The Skybox Event Center, visit www.skyboxevents.com.
